MOTOGP » Simoncelli impressed by MotoGP power, Melandri RCV return.

Would that be the same SBK he crashed in race 1? Fail. That was the point of the original poster, he is fast but erratic. Get it? Doubtful......... As Posted by Fan Oh you mean if a guy crashes a few times (or in this case once) then he must be erractic?? Mmmm I remember a certain Ben Spies having a couple of unforced Off's at the begining of his World Supers career earlier this year..yet look what he went on to do?? And I am not sure but did some Aussie guy abit tasty on a bike with a GP WC to his name now spend pretty much ALL his first year binning it?? Before you post get a clue ok!!

MOTOGP » Ben Spies sixth on Tech 3 debut.

..which any Haters will lap up. JT had a Good first year and a poor second (for all reasons most being himself) but he tried and failed, sad (For JT fans) but fact. I never really liked or was a fan but all the haters rile me as fanboys do so I sometimes respond or flamebait (alittle) because of it. Lets see how he does over the winter and first few races, The engine rule could still affect him alot (Other Riders too) and he WILL have tough competition in a resurged Marco along with the rookies, Can he be the first NON-Factory race winner in the 800 era??? Lets see. Point of note what happend to colin nearly a second slower that his QP time?? Did he get JT's bike and Ben his??

@ Antiseptic When did this place become Darkwaknights Blog? Why thankyou Anti I must make such a great statement of fact that i stand out from the crowd? that or you are searching for my posts!! Look I will say it again (although I have in past post's so you can read them if you like). Ben Spies is a Great,Great Talent no doubt and a fully deserved WC, He has also been great in GP thus far and I am not calling at all. Just the obsessive Fanboys, Ben is a realist and is playing down his chances but the Spies(ers) are pushing him up to Rossi heights already. He will do well no doubt but MANY things could happen and if he falls you have given everyone else ammo to fire at him...

Thanks Mat.. Love your stuff too KTM Yeah the 250 race was awesome Aoyama rode to win even when he could have settled into it. Simon was a victim of his own aggresion i feel!!. the Larger is chilling nicely my friend.. But just in case keep the Moonshine (is it room temperature??) Grape not apple please!!

@Yeah Look just stop ..please for your own health. World SBK's are not a step up from 250s. At best it is on equal footing. Both feed into MotoGP. NO it isn't Look a 250 is a quater litre (2stroke) motorcycle with NO/NONE electronic rider aids. A SBK (even more so the RSVR) is a 1000cc (4stroke)Motorcycle With electronic aids. So the Step from a SBK to GP's is up (more power/less weight/more electronics) and a Step from 250's to SBK is also a step up. Not across or anything like that.

the point is that we are all paying attention here and some people who claim that he will NOT be rookie of the year but one of three others WILL be... well, i'm just reminding you that i cant wait to re-post this at the end of 10. cheers mate. As Posted by Mat Mladin Fair play but the odds are in my favour. We shall reconvene here in 2010 and check the results...Oh i am excited.. arn't you!!!

@Yeah Dude. Just stop. You obviously don't get it. SBK's do not equate to GP when comparing performances. SBK's are a downgrade from GP. You claiming Simo's podium carries as much weight as a hypothetical Spies GP podium is like me claiming Spies has already won the equal of a MotoGP title. But this is what fanboys like you ARE claiming!! He will be the WC, He WILL WIN races Simo's podium in SBK's would be equal to a Spies podium in 250s. Stop failing at comprehension and analytical skills please. Me...Fail.. with such amazing analysing from yourself held up with NO fact.No Simons podium is equal to a guy jumping class (upward) on a 250 wud be down See how that works

Well posted Yeah!!! Look if you want to just put Ben on a Podium to the Gods, then fine. But mean time in the real world it is better to take things as they are (as ben does). I quote you"Simoncelli had a good deal of time on the rsv4 prior to his podium at Imola. He had time on the bike last year at tests in Valencia, and at tests this year at Mugello. Stop lying and/or being stupid" Did i say otherwise?? Nope i said they both had time in the class (Sbks for Sim and Gps for Ben) and Simoncelli out performed him.. there i said!! What now? Like it or not NOTHING i have said is untrue or Derogatory just the Facts Mam!!
